H^ for the frontsurface c^ is slightly closer to the face of the lens than the focal line l^F^lfor the back surface c-. Aside from this, in making a bi-cylindrical lens itis difficult to insure the chief planes of refraction being strictly at right-angles to each other, so that failure in this is… … Fig. 21.Double or Bi-cylindrical Lens. lens ma} generally be accepted as a vanishing quantity in proportion tothe focal distance, we may consider a common focal point to exist for bothrefractino- surfaces.
